How to extract only used references from a bibtex file

[list_email]

I am preparing to send tex files, graphics files, etc. to a publisher. I think 
there should be a way to send something less than my entire bibtex file to 
them. Is there a way to easily extract only the references that I am using for 
this paper into a separate bibtex file or is there some other way to do this? I 
notice that when I compile the tex file (using Texnicle on MacOS) something 
called a .bbl file is generated that contains only my used references but is is 
different from a .bib file. I suppose this is best posted to a latex list. :-/

There's also the simple tool aux2bib, which is in the bibtools package.
Just run it on your aux file.

If you have the option just to include the bibliography in the document,
then you can use the include_bib.py script that ships with LyX. Create a
new format LaTeX (With Bib). Mark it as a document format and check
"Show in export menu". Then make a converter from LaTeX (pdflatex) to
LaTeX (With Bib). Converter command is:

python -tt $$s/scripts/include_bib.py $$i $$o

and make the flag "needaux". You'll also want to make sure it is enabled.

Now you should be able just to export to this format, and the
bibliography will just be included in the document. No need for an
external bib file.

Re: Image paths when exporting from Lyx

[muzzle]

Hello everyone,
I have partially solved my previous issue
https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/524505/image-path-when-exporting-from-lyx/552722#552722.


The one problem I have left is that lyx removes the image extension when
exporting to latex (when using the "nice" flag); this forces me to specify
the image extension in the pandoc command which is not very flexible. Do
you have any idea how to get lyx to output the image file name including
the extension?

Best,

Emme
